"Chloë Sevigny gave me some pretty sexy black leather lingerie, and I trust anything she says, especially when it comes to fashion." We can see this ending very badly for Ginnifer Goodwin. [WWD]

A Long Island businessman spent $175,000 building his wife a closet just like Carrie's on Sex And The City! Unfortunately, from the Post's photo, it sort of looks like a few Ikea shelves stuck together. (Expedit, Låck, anyone?) [NYPost]

Huh. American Apparel has a new ad that doesn't feature any pubic hair, ass crack, or other rote sexual objectification. Oh, right — it's an ad for dude's clothing. [Copyranter]

Well, one of last week's Blind Items is answered: The editor who totaled the $250,000 Bentley was Kate Winick at something called Worth magazine. She's going to mention the car in an upcoming issue, but not the crash, and surprise surprise, Bentley has been sooooo understanding. [WWD]

J.C. Penney looks to be in for a shakeup now that two activist investors gained seats on the company's board. Penney's will be closing some stores and call centers, and will continue taking steps to exit the paper catalog business. [AP]
